In addition to complying with the liquid restrictions and dangerous goods, you will also need to keep in mind certain regulations that apply to the security filters at airports:

• There is a limitation of the size of hand luggage, as per the IATA standard (56cm x 40cm x 25cm). If you exceed this limitation, the staff at security control will direct you to the check-in desks and you will have to check in your luggage.

• Your jacket or coat has to pass through the X-ray at security control separately from your hand luggage, while you pass through the metal detector arch.

• Your laptop and any large electrical or electronic device will also have to pass through the X-ray separately from your other hand luggage.

• If you are flying from the USA, Dominican Republic or Costa Rica, the maximum amount of powder-based substances that you can take in your hand luggage is 12oz/350ml/350g.
